Frequency-revealing attacks against Frequency-hiding Order-preserving Encryption
Summary: All existing FH-OPE schemes leak plaintext frequency and succumb to three ciphertext-only "frequency-revealing" attacks recovering >90% of frequencies on real datasets. Blame non-uniform ciphertext distributions and ignored insertion-order leakage, enabling downstream inference that breaks FH-OPE. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
